Could this be the world's rarest Ferrari? The 250 GT SWB California Spider is up for auction and possesses a unique feature–an eye-catching, one-of-a-kind color scheme never seen before on this model.

The evolution of Ferrari’s 250 series is a story of fascinating inventions, from Testa Rossas to Lussos.
